My wife and I just got some inflatables for our 2 year around Australia caravan trip. We cant take our regular boards as we will have a tinnie on the car roof and only option was iSUPs. For us, SUPing is a great family sport and where ever we go the 2 kids come along with us (3.5 & 20 months) and have just as much fun out on the boards.

I like a bit of surfing so I went with the 10'0 Whopper and the wife went with the 12'6 Tourer. I was very surprised how good the tourer was. Stiff and fast for an inflatable. The Whopper is mainly going to be a general paddler loaded with the picnic gear and a kid as well as my surfer. Unfortunately yesterday there were no waves off Bribie Island so I didnt get to have a surf but as we will start our expedition in Ballina & Byron Bay I'm going put this baby through its paces. We head north after that and then once we reach the cape its inland and a big figure of 8 around Oz.

If anyone is interested in catching up during our journey you can FB us on 'This is our Australia' or we will have a blog under same name.
